Ingredients
Cooking Instructions
| 3 | tbsps Champagne vinegar or white-wine vinegar |
| 1/2 | tsp Dijon mustard |
| 1/4 | tsp black pepper |
| 1/4 | tsp sugar |
| 2 | tsps salt |
| 1/2 | cup olive oil |
| 3 | lb small (1 1/2- to 2-inch) yellow-fleshed potatoes such as Yukon Gold, scrubbed well |
| 3/4 | cu |
Cooking Instructions
| Step 1 | Whisk together vinegar, mustard, pepper, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. |
| Step 2 | Quarter potatoes, then cover with cold water by 1 inch in a 4- to 5-quart pot and bring to a boil with remaining teaspoon salt. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until potatoes are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, then transfer hot potatoes to a large bowl and toss with onion and all but 1/4 cup vinaigrette. Cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. |
| Step 3 | While potatoes cool, cook green beans in a 3-quart saucepan of boiling salted water, uncovered, until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes, then drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking. Let stand 2 minutes. Drain and pat dry. |
| Step 4 | Just before serving, toss potato mixture with green beans, celery, parsley, and remaining 1/4 cup vinaigrette. |
| Step 5 | Cooks\' notes: |
| Step 6 | Potatoes can be cooked and tossed with onion and vinaigrette 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature (this will take about 1 hour), then add remaining ingredients. |
| Step 7 | Օ Green beans can be cooked and celery can be diced 1 day ahead and chilled separately, wrapped well in dampened paper towels, in sealed plastic bags. |
